The traffic at Daz probably has more to do wth it being summer, as BB stated, but also they have had many issues after thier reboot, and they are working to overcome those issue.

Also, they probably alienated some die hard very vocal poser users we see in the forums all the time.

its been said that the forums account for a very tiny fraction of all the customers at any of the poser content websites, so I wouldn't put much stock into basing much on forum traffic.

Dollar$ however, are a different matter.

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
